Inks one-year deal Nylander secured a one-year, $775,000 contract with Toronto on Friday.

Impact Nylander earned his contract by racking up eight goals and four assists in 14 minor-league contests for AHL Toronto while on a minor-league-only deal. Selected by the Sabres with the eighth overall pick in the 2016 NHL Draft, the 26-year-old winger has failed to secure a long-term role at the NHL level, playing in just 121 NHL contests for Buffalo, Chicago, Pittsburgh and Columbus. In a corresponding move, the Leafs designated Matthew Knies (upper body) in a corresponding move.

Ready to go Saturday Nylander (upper body) will return to the lineup Saturday against the Penguins, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

Impact After missing Columbus' last two games, Nylander will return to action Saturday against his former team. The 26-year-old winger had gone scoreless in four games prior to the injury, though he's tallied eight goals and 11 points in 15 games with Columbus since he was acquired from the Penguins at the trade deadline. Nylander will likely return to a top-line role.

James Malatesta is expected to draw into the lineup and make his NHL debut against the Coyotes due to Nylander's absence.
